Like so many of its competitors, the popular David's Shirts has global reach and even a branch in New York City. But customers still enjoy the personalized service of a smaller business supervised by David Chu himself since 1961. All the work is done in-house by Shanghainese tailors with at least 20 years' experience each. There are more than 6,000 imported European fabrics to choose from, each prewashed. Examples of shirts, suits, and accessories—including 30 collar, 12 cuff, and 10 pocket styles—help you choose. Single-needle tailoring, French seams, 22 stitches per inch, handpicked, double-stitched shell buttons, German interlining—it's all here. Your details, down to which side you wear your wristwatch, are kept on file should you wish to use their mail-order service in the future.
